Intermittent Audio

[Josh]

Still having this problem, I downloaded new drivers for
my NIC (Intel pro/100 ve) and turned the QoS packet
schedueler back on. People can hear me now with the
packet schedueler on, but I still cut out on the other
end.

Could this have anything to do with noise/echo
cancellation technology that messenger uses. In the past
people say I go silent when I am not talking, now, it
seems to be happening when I am talking.

Anybody have any ideas, I am almost out of them.
Thanks, Josh

What are you doing when using messenger?
If you are on the net/surfing/any other thing then don't as other tasks will
cause audio to cut out.
Just do one thing at a time.
I can be heard ok by my contact if they are not using Internet explorer or
anything else to do with internet..
If I surf or anything else then my adio drops out.
Bandwidth, cpu usage and a few other things cause it.
Anything needing a lot or more cpu usage while using messenger will make it
happen.
One thing at a time is best.
